Very good interview. They responded well since he (Zane) is a fan and they seemed to feed off of that. Interesting to hear that Bono didn't think "Streets" was a great lyrical moment. He is really hard on himself.

Awesome interview. When someone is talking about the details of a U2 song, you can see that that's when the band responds the best to the question. For me, the line "You glorify the past when the future dries up" is the lyric that has been looming over the Joshua Tree 2017 tour. That the band is very aware of the idea, to the point where Bono even cites that lyric, makes me feel a lot better about what's coming. And if "You're The Best Thing About Me" is the single that leads into a stellar album, I couldn't care less.

Nicely filmed, shame about the presenter, I hate ZL, he wants to be everyone's best friend.

So what should he do? Be openly antagonistic? He's clearly a fan of the band, and fans of U2 tend to get the best interviews out of them.

He's a fan of everyone he interviews, he tries to come across as sincere but it's oh so contrived to me. I can't stand him.

This interview wanted to delve into the Joshua Tree but it offered barely anything new or interesting other than how the band feels moving forward on to SOE. There are so many questions that could be asked but all we are ever given is staple answers from the band I've heard 20 times and read numerous times in print.

ZL is a brown nosing master. Kudos to the filming style and direction though. I do it for a living and was highly impressed.

What's everyone raving about ? How many times have we heard the "it better be good" talk re: next album. And I love how in 40+ minutes spend on defending a nostalgia tour, barely a few lines are given to SOE, and even those pathetically vague. The mushroom story totally saved the day.

yeah, i agree. That hardness/doubt makes him so strong. Your at your best when you constantly trying to be better.

Zane Lowe knows his sh**. His talent for spotting new artists is second to none.

I wonder then, what Bono thinks of lesser u2 songs...like Vertigo and Elevation?

He knows these songs brought them great commercial success, and gets the crowd going at live shows. U2 won't appreciate being asked their true opinion of Vertigo and Elevation, or admitting it's lesser.

Same way Ralph Fiennes feels about his Voldermort role, Gary Oldman feels about his Sirius Black role, Mark Ruffalo feels about his Hulk role (lol). It makes them big bucks but they have many other artful roles they want to sit and talk about for 40 minutes.

Vertigo brought them great mainstream relevancy with the ipod ad, and it was also the last big U2 song played frequently on popular, current radio (sad to think it was that long ago). God knows NLOTH had no radio hits.

Elevation was also good for their commercial success (being the Lara Croft 2001 movie song). It bolstered/added to Beautiful Day to cement ATYCLB as a popular, successful album with the masses.
